Jonathan Haidt: The Case Against Social Media | Lex Fridman Podcast #291. OnlyFans isn’t revolutionising sex work, and using it ruined things I once did for personal pleasure | Australian books. I joked to another sex worker recently that five years ago every journalist asked us, maddeningly and repeatedly, about sex robots.

Now, the obsession is OnlyFans. As a full-service sex worker (“full service” is the industry term for penis-in-vagina penetrative sex), the prominence of OnlyFans in media discourse is frustrating, but I understand it in the same way I understood that last preoccupation. Combine a moral panic (prostitution) with an older generation’s feeling of being left behind by technology (AI, the gig economy) and you have an intoxicating topic. Like sugar-baby website SeekingArrangement before it, OnlyFans is giving more visibility to a certain type of sex work and, thanks to the pandemic, it’s also booming – as newcomers flock to it and in-person sex workers have had to pivot to online.

I was one of those. When brothels were shut in March 2020 – along with many other things – I went on to OnlyFans. A message from a subscriber (“wanna meet up?”) Visualization.

Wikipedia was the first great, high profile success story of Internet mass collaboration and produced a well-loved reference used with obsessive frequency by an entire generation. But it is past time for us to build new forms of knowledge commons.

Wikipedia is a website, controlled by a foundation. It is the work of, theoretically, the entire Internet but it is not a global commons. One tiny group can, and did, blackout the entire site for a period specified by them. Wikipedia has survived so long by being hyper aware of and sensitive to their user community, it is highly doubtful they would ever become evil, but it is nevertheless centralized control of what ought to be a global commons.

And centralized power always ends up doing things like this. As an old node in the idea of free information, Wikipedia has a rigid hierarchy of tradition and established editors. When Wikipedia was created, in 2001, it was a fascinating and liberating tool to work with. Like this: Like Loading... Pearltree. Getting started. Social Media.
